About the Manual

The instructions within this manual will help you in administering and main-
taining the entry/economy/economy plus/standard/advance. The in-
structions contain important information for safe and proper operation of
the advance. Follow them carefully to avoid improper operation and get the
most out of your multi-function telephone in a network environment.
This guide is intended for service providers and network administrators
who administer VoIP services using the advance and who have a funda-
mental understanding of SIP . The tasks described in this guide are not in-
tended for end users of the phones. Many of these tasks affect the ability
of a phone to function on the network and require an understanding of IP
networking and telephony concepts.
For your own protection, please read the section dealing with safety.
Follow the safety instructions carefully in order to avoid endangering
yourself or other persons and to prevent damage to the unit.
These instructions are laid out in a user-oriented manner, which means that
you are led through the functions of the advance step by step – from the
setup, through descriptions of tools and extensions discussions of special
administrative and service tasks at the end of the manual. For the users, a
separate manual is provided.
